Well it seems there is no way but getting this OpenAP compatible wireless
access points.

I was also wondering about the pc cards with multiple antenna. Do they
share the same circuit or they are seperate? Can they work at the same
time? If they are not different circuit. Does it lower the transmit power
since we would be transmitting to 2 antennas at the same time?
